Gregg Allman cancels September Artpark show

Following
doctor's orders, southern blues rocker Gregg Allman has canceled his Sept. 7
outdoor concert scheduled as part of the free "Coors Light Wednesday" series at
Artpark.

According to
Allman's management, the iconic guitarist and vocalist had to cancel four dates
at the end of his four-week European tour in June due to an upper respiratory
condition. His doctor hoped that, with rest, he'd get better. Unfortunately,
the issue has persisted. Treatment is going to involve several days of
hospitalization and four to six weeks of bed rest at home.

Allman
continues to recover from his successful liver transplant and expects to return
to touring in support of his recently released "Low Country Blues" album in the
late fall.

Artpark patrons
who purchased priority or VIP tickets should contact the Artpark Box Office at 716-754-4375 for a refund.

Venue organizers
plan to reschedule the highly anticipated concert event with Allman for a to-be-determined
date in summer 2012. Stay tuned to this website, as well as Artpark's website (www.artpark.net), Facebook page, and
Twitter feed for updates.
